Hardly a sound in your world,
Only the repetitious "S".

This is beautiful....... you have made that creepy thing something so very attractive! As you stretch, easy in your new length, Cool and supple as a stream's dance...................... Lovely observation! A sure 10
We had Garter snakes when the children were young., a male and a female. The male was a bit frisky but you could handle the female. She would crawl up my arm inside my shirt and peep out round my collar! I took her out of the vivarium most days. They were named after the American pop duo The Sparks Ron and Russell by my daughters! Their favourite group at the time!
And that sparkling newness As you stretch, easy in your new length, Cool and supple as a stream's dance...... lovely! ! ! ! ! Yes, I guess a snake's forked tongue has two tips. My belly may have the O-shape. A fantassssssstic poem. Bri :))

Thanks for that, Bri sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!
still problems I left a comment. It said you replied and both have disappeared. My comment was about only 2 of 10 attempts get past NOT FOUND on your sites. So you are not being neglected just temporarily
Alexandrine is a new one on me. I shall look it up. The poem was entertaining and caused great visions. I would be content to read more of its kind.
It's handy being near the top of the Alphabet. Guess I'm bone idle. Actually somebody pointed out that I use the six beats to line method as used in French without counting syllables. I mainly chop the lines into two with three beats. I think it's because I read nothing but French Verse for years so I've been indoctrinated by the Froggies. Not I hope your good friends in Quebec! I may have asurprise for you tomorrow. I'm doing a Limerick in French but I'm beggared if I can think of the rhyme for the last line! It's oogie's fault or probably Bud. I'll find someone to blame! Many regards Tom
I had two snakes many years ago and found them very beautiful. Thank you for your comments. I shall look up your site in the next day or two. Promise! Many regards Tom Billsborough
Loved the last two lines especially. The s is both there only word and there curvy shape. An in depth take on a fascinating creature
I had two garter snakes many years ago, a male and a female plus I think about four broods. The sloughing of the skin was incredible and the new skin had a marvellous sparkle. Loved them. Thanks for your comments. I think the last two lines are my favourites too. I shall look at your poems over the next few days. Many regards Tom Billsbprough
